vector editing and pen tool!

brilliant & @figma are the only tools in the world that support vector networks. But what does that look like with shaders? and multiple path support? check out the video to be mind blown

Beta version 0.2 is out! This is a HUGE update all across the board. Here's a partial list of features:

Design system v2 - Rebrand any design in one click. New Design System panel in the right toolbar: pick a brand and watch your entire design re-skin in real time. Switch brands per element, per axis, per canvas, or per folder. Tokens are first class now; agents bind colors and sizes to your design system instead of guessing hex, so swapping palettes feels magical. A new viewer card showcases your palette, type scale, and primitives on a single page.

Ship designs as real code - New HTML, CSS, and React (JSX) export. Self-contained documents with web fonts included, auto-layout converted to semantic flexbox, design tokens emitted as CSS variables. Multi-stroke, inner shadows and glows, image crops, rich text spans all render the way you designed them. Drop the export into your codebase and ship.

Try the AI chat without setting anything up - Don't have Claude Code installed yet? Open the chat and click a suggested prompt. A real recorded agent session replays onto your canvas, building real elements you can edit. The install-Claude-Code wall is gone.

Send to Brilliant from Figma - Bidirectional now. Push any @figma selection straight into your Brilliant canvas over a local connection, no copy-paste. Rotation, masks, image crops, and outside-stroke positions all survive cleanly.

Multi-page PDF export - PDFs span multiple pages now. Text renders correctly, arrow and circle stroke caps draw on arcs and vectors, and rasterized effects no longer have those weird gray halos.

Cleaner SVG export - Design tokens resolve to their actual hex on export instead of dropping. Stroke positions survive a Figma round-trip.

Tokens visible everywhere in the inspector - Every color, size, and effect bound to a design token shows the token name and a small blue diamond indicator. Edit hex live in the fill type field. The eyedropper copies the picked color to your clipboard at the same time it commits.

Quieter when you're not using it - When the window is hidden or backgrounded, Brilliant pauses its visual loops and caps its caches. Real battery and CPU savings if you keep it open all day.

Snappier on heavy canvases - Hovering elements no longer triggers global rebuilds. Big design files feel more responsive in everyday use.

Calmer workspace - The space around your canvases is now a solid soft grey instead of a checkerboard pattern. New canvases also start without a background fill so they're ready to design into immediately.

Quieter menu bar - New 'Hide menu bar icon' setting if you don't want Brilliant sitting up there. Clicking a menu-bar item properly brings the app to the front.

AI vector illustrations with @QuiverAI - Ask the agent for an icon or illustration and it streams onto your canvas as a real, editable SVG, not a flat raster image. Feed it an existing image and it'll vectorize it back to clean shapes. Connect a Quiver API key in Settings then AI Providers.

Smarter agents - Agents bind colors to your design system instead of guessing hex. New blueprint primitives make repeated patterns, instance overrides, and undo checkpoints much easier for them to generate cleanly. Parser is more forgiving about common slips.

Canvas recovery - Reopening a canvas that's been deleted now restores it from trash (or creates an empty one) instead of erroring out. Links and breadcrumbs don't go dead.

And a long tail of vector imports, instance text alignment, gradient safety, sub-pixel sizing, repo-switch design system reloads, command palette cursor routing, file reload on external change, vector edge hover, raised file-descriptor limit at startup, plus dozens more.
